Our Adult Learning and Resettlement team is delighted to be celebrating Refugee Festival Scotland.
Organised by the Scottish Refugee Council, the festival will bring people from different backgrounds together in friendship and solidarity.
The theme of this year’s festival is Rise, in honour of those who have been forced to flee their homes rising above challenges and uncertainty to rebuild their lives in Scotland.
This courage, strength and resilience is our inspiration.
Planned activities under the theme RISE include a hill walk, cinema screening and a football tournament. We are also holding RISE and Shine cafés that are open to all in our local communities and invite you to attend the following events:
Tuesday 18 June 2024, 10am to 12pm
RISE and Shine café in Pat Cullinan Centre, Logans Road, Motherwell, ML1 3PB
Thursday 20 June 2024, 10am to 12pm
RISE and Shine café in Chapelside Community Centre, Waddell Street, Airdrie, ML6 6JU.
Come along for teas/coffees and home baking and take part in chair-based yoga and fun activities.
